KORTU PACIFIC COLLEGE OF
DENTISTRY EXERCISES.
In Charge to the Class, Dr. Robert
C. Coffey Warns Against Prac
tices Not Scrupulously Clean.
The large assemblage of friends of the
graduating class of the North Pacific
College of Dentistry that crowded the
Hellig Theater from pit to dome Thurs
day 'night attested the Interest felt in the
annual commencement exercises of that
college. The dean. Dr. Herbert C. Mil
ler, with a few well-chosen words con
cerning the faithful work and qualifica
tions of the class of 1908, turned the
class over to Dr. Joseph A. Pettit, pro
fessor of Anatomy, who conferred the
degree of doctor of dental medicine upon
S3 young men in cap and gown. When
they were given their rolls of parchment,
hearty applause from the big audience
followed each newly-fledged young doc
tor to his seat.
Dr. Pettit Informed the audience that
the faithful and Intelligent work during
three years in laboratories and class
room that had earned them this degree
could be taken as assurance of their
nbfllty to render a high grade of profes
sional service to the public. Judge M.
C George gave the annual address, dwell
ing upon the remarkable advancement
of the science of dentistry, which has
now become a learned and scientific pro
' fessslon, because of the great strides
made In the past IS years.
The charge to the class was delivered
by Dr. Robert C. Coffey, professor of
surgery. Dr. Coffey spoke on the psy
chology of habit, quoting the eminent
authority on this subject, William James,
and emphasizing the Importance of ad
hering to correct habits, especially on
that most vital point of surgical cleanli
ness. Dentistry, he said, had become a
specialty of medicine. The course of in
struction In this college was only one
year short of that In the best medical
colleges in the land. This training in
asepsis and surgery was qualifying them
for such efficient service that those edu
cated In the older schools. If they did
rot put forth great efforts to keep up
with the procession, would be relegated
to the "scrap heap."
He requested the audience that in se
lecting and patronizing a dentist they
should take note of the tendencies of the
operator as to cleanliness, sterilization
of instruments and hands, and general
aseptio precautions. He urged that If
there was carelessness in this direction
to shun them as the plague, for dis
eases of the most loathsome kind could
easily be carried in this way from an
Infected person and implanted In a per
fectly healthful and Innocent individual,
lie referred in conclusion to the large
number of graduates that had gone out
from tills college during the past few
years and been distributed through sur
rounding states.
The musical programme was In charge
of Mrs. Walter Reed, assisted by Miss
Kathleen Lawler and Dr. George Ainslie,
all of whom gave delightful vocal num
bers that were most enthusiastically en
cored. The class roll of the graduates

ASSESSOR DOUBLES VALUE
Clatsop Official Expected to Add
$3,500,000 to Taxroll.
ASTORIA, Or., May 23. (Special.)
Assessor Cornelius is now engaged in
preparing, the 1908 assessment roll and
while, of course, definite figures are not
yet obtainable, it is probable the total
valuations will show an increase of about
t3.500.000, when compared with the roll
of 1907, or between 40 and 60 per cent.
Last year the roll amounted to slightly
over $5,700,000, and this year it is ex
pected to total not less than $8,500,000.
While the tendency has been to increase
the valuations year by year, the great
advance at this time is in accordance
with the new state law, which requires
assessments be fixed at full values. Mr.
Cornelius in speaking of the matter to
day, said he intends to double the valu
ations of all property on the west side of
the bay. as well as lots inside the city
limits and all Improved lands, although
there will be no Increase in the valua
tions of Improvements on either city
property or lands.
Rough landB and lands on which there
Is standing timber will be advanced 25
per cent, while on timber, railway prop
erty and merchandise, the increase will
be in the neighborhood of 40 per cent, or
sufficient to make the valuations double
what they were four years ago. For in
stance, timber was assessed last year at
16. 20, 30, 46 and 66 cents per thousand
feet, according to the county cruises and
in aocordance with Its location, accessi
bility and quality. This year the valua
tion will be at the rate of 20, 80, 40. 70
and 80 cents per thousand for the respec
tive classes.
However, the law In force this year
allows the exemption of household goods
and the reductions which will be granted
under that provision, will probably
amount to about $150,000.

GHENT'S FLORAL FESTIVAL
BELGIAN CITY HOLDS REMARK
ABLE CENTENARY.
Celebrates the Foundation of Its
Staple Industry, Which Is the
. Growing of Flowers.
GHENT., May 16. Ghent is a town
built on flowers, and celebrated the cere
mony of the . foundation of its staple In
dustry with the most gorgeous display of
certain flowers ever collected in one place.
They were Judged by the finest botanists
of Europe from Spain, from Italy, from
Sweden, from Germany, from- Elngland;
and among the English representatives
on the great international jury special
honor was conferred on Lord Redesdale.
The reunion of these scleiiflsts in a hall
of giant palms. Intersected by patches of
the red-tongued anthurium, one of the
marvels of scientific development, was it
self a wonderful study in types.
But Ghent was celebrating more than a
centenary. This month there has been
newly created as a permanent part of the
government of Belgium a Department of
Horticulture, the first ever established In
any country, so vast Is the national in
come from flowers. A single firm, one of
many hundred, sent abroad last year 100,
000 azaleas, the supreme flower of Ghent,
which, indeed, supplies the whole world
with bushes. ,
The King of the (Belgians, as King and
as Prince,, has not missed a flower show
of the Ghent Soclete Royale d'Agrlcul
ture et de Botanique for 50 years a Jubi
lee as well as a centenary was being
celebrated. The scene that greeted him
at the opening ceremony was brilliant be
yond conception. He passed from the cool
aisles of colossal palms across the court
into a hall an acre in extent, which was
one solid mass of azaleas and hydran
geas and rhododendrons, almost too full
of bloom to show a leaf.
From these he passed to the upper
room, where the green of the equatorial
plants and the primary colors of the
azaleas were combined.

PUT A MONARCH MALLEABLE RANGE
IN YOUR KITCHEN
It burns hard coal, soft coal or wood,
and utilizes all the heating power of
the fuel. Ordinary ranges are fuel
wasters, because when steel is bolted
to cast Iron it is practically impossible
to make tight joints, without the use
of stove putty.
Such a stove may work well until
the bolts become loose, or the seams
open between the rivets. The putty
contracts, hardens and falls out. The
outside air leaks in through every
seam and joint, through imperfectly
closed openings at the oven door, the
draft door, etc, and it takes twice as
much fuel to keep up the Are.
The Monarch Range Is different. It
Is constructed with malleable iron
frames, to which the sheet steel is
riveted not bolted.
Only in this way can abso
lutely air-tight joints be made.
There is no stove putty in a
Monarch.
Bach of the frames around the
oven door, ash door, the pouch
feed, back of oven, etc, is made
of malleable Iron, which Insures
air-tight seams without danger
of leaks.
All this makes an economical,
lasting range, with perfect fire
control a range that cooks well
and lasts a lifetime.

CATARRH CATARRH CATARRH
IMPONDERO-THERAPY
THE
CURE
Catarrh, with all its distressing, disgusting and dangerous variations,
affects fully seventy-five per cent of the people on this continent, men,
women and children. A neglected "cold in the head" soon produces a
watery discharge from the nose and eyes, "stuffiness" of the head
and throat, clogs the membranes with catarrhal virus, the patient
loses the sense of smell, the bones of the middle ear cease to vibrate
to sound, and deafness ensues. The poisonous mucous attacks the
stomach, the blood carries the infection throughout the system, into
the bronchial tubes and lung cells, and then CONSUMPTION!
Why endure catarrh? We are preaching the gospel of CURE to
you through these columns every day. To convince you that WE
CUBE CATAKRH we will take your case, treat and CURE it for the
nominal charge of FIVE DOLLARS PER MONTH.
RHEUMATISM
Insidious in its encroachments, disastrous in its effects, Rheuma
tism is a universal scourge, and if not quickly and properly diagnosed
and eradicated soon renders helpless the most robust man or woman.
In its train it carries a multitude of .complications, and its baleful
and destructive influence upon the human organism is too well known
to justify graphic portrayal here. WE CURB RHEUMATISM!
